Grace Celi is a writer and dancer from Brooklyn, NY and a recent graduate of Franklin & Marshall College, where she received a B.A in Creative Writing and a minor in Dance. Grace’s movement experience ranges from flamenco and modern dance, to compositional and contact improvisation, to vinyasa and ashtanga yoga. She is interested in movement as a means of finding wholeness: of unifying body and mind, shedding the illusion of detachment from one’s environment, and, in the process, both losing and becoming oneself. Grace has had the pleasure of working under the mentorship of Elba Hevia y Vaca, Pamela Vail, and Jennifer Conley, and looks forward to joining the Movement Research community.
